Don't Bail Out Coal! By keeping fossil-fuel powered facilities open, the Trump administration is choosing big-polluters over the people by raising energy costs, worsening regional air pollution, and ultimately adding more fuel to the fire that is the climate crisis.

🌀 From Superstorm Sandy to Hurricane Melissa, extreme weather disasters have become too frequent. We won't stand by while Trump jeopardizes our safety, health, economy, and future so he can give kickbacks to his billionaire buddies. Cuts to federal agencies like NWS, NOAA & FEMA put lives at risk.

ONE justice could decide the outcome.

DYK PA's top court protects our nat'l resources?
🌳The Court ruled in PEDF v. Commonwealth (2017) that PA must manage public nat'l resources as a trustee for ALL residents. That means our state forests aren’t just gov't property, they belong to the people.
